Charge: to create a single copy "opt-in" serials program in TRLN, with materials housed at the Library Services Center (LSC). Electronic journals and e-archiving have matured to the point where print journals with electronic equivalents may be safely archived off-site, electronic-only collecting in certain areas is a reality for research libraries, and where a single copy archive can reasonably serve multiple institutions.

As Phase I of the project, the Task Group will coordinate the shared, merged storage of print journal archives, using chemistry and other science journals at Duke and Carolina which have already been targeted for storage in the LSC under the principle of non-duplication.

Binding legal documents to govern the shared storage program will be developed by senior library staff and university counsels. These documents will be in place well before the completion of Phase I.

The Group will oversee the process of choosing which copy will be selected as the archival copy, the presentation of shared materials in local OPACs, documentation of last copy status, and designate the archive either dim or dark, articulating appropriate access models depending on that designation.

 
Deliverable
The Group's final report will document procedures and principles involved with a shared print collection. The group will raise issues needing resolution as they are encountered. The report will be delivered by December 31, 2006.

The Group's report will document principles and guidelines for including a title in the single copy program (a selection component to be developed in consultation with subject selectors), and should also address the process of adding future titles to the archive and to the single-copy program, and for adding additional TRLN libraries.
